Hi all,
there's a way to increase the range and/or the power for this weapon(exept double fire )?
I find some players with this "blessed" shotgun capable to kill me in one shot from the long distance
Is this possible?and How????

I feel like the faster you are (aiming the target), the more powerful is the Shotgun. Double shot is definitly deadly when in the head at low distance and whatever how high is the armor of your target, and is very effective at long distance as far as you still aim for the head.

if you want to master the shotgun you need to play short range maps I assume. I see many people on maps like lockdown, lostvillage, lostarena, biohazard etc. who are very good with it and who often kill with only 2 shots. infact better with the shotgun than with the 357 in many cases which I find a bit weird, as I myself am very bad with the shotgun but not that bad with the 357. I often canīt even get 1 shot kills with the shotgun against still standing enemies _________________

Of course you can but you might not necessarly be aiming at him
Try looking at the shot pattern on a blank wall and move back. The wall heals itself now so it is not easy to visualise what is happening in a sequence of shots. What is appearent is that the shot pattern is random and over range, the spread will make it shotty less effective. If you get a good central shot density then the weapons can be used accurately over medium range. That means it is down to luck rather than skill. This goes a long way to explain why you can kill with one shot sometimes and others it takes many more. I find this very frustrating and reserve the shotty for taking campers and spawn killers heads off at close quarters.

its a good combination to hit once with the 357 and then change to the shotgun if you are in low to midrange. you wont go out of ammo trying to shoot someone the second time with the 357 while they are aware of you thus making it harder. I mostly fire single shots because the double shot has a slight delay (or so Iīve been told) and if you end up messing the shot up you lose 2 rounds. its a weapon thats hard to master but its worth it. I still have to go a long way for that._________________

Just to point out the comments I made about primary and secondry fire pellet count are no longer valid. One of the numerous updates since my initial post have restored the shotgun to the way it is supposed to function.
Also the walls and floor have stopped self healing so you can now actually compare the shot patterns from the shotgun._________________

it does make a difference, u get instant death for some weird reason,maybe it's psychological lol

I agree, some players can shoot me with loads of pellets and I can carry on going. Others nail me once with a double even at far range and i die.

I've had 60 suit and full health and someone can still kill me in one double easy. There is a trick to using the shotgun I just aint figured it out yet. I also tend to use single shots rather than double. May go for the double button press later on and see what results i get with it._________________

single shots dont even compare to double mouse button shotty. it's damage of epic proportions lol_________________
Illyria says: I am not going to explain why?you are too stupid to get it.

Try not to forget that you must aim ahead with double shot. Its supposed to be a hit scan weapon with both modes, but no matter what anyone says the double shot must be fired ahead of the player, this is why you miss _________________www.killcampers.com
